Anyone who has paid attention to this mailing list over the last few months has seen the "It doesn't have 3G, it's worthless" messages about the FreeRunner. For me (And many, many others) having a fast, power-hungry wireless pipe to the phone isn't as important as everything else the FreeRunner brings to the table. But I do have a question: What kind of thru-put can we expect to see from the GPRS radio in the FreeRunner? Is it 2k/sec dial-up speed? I'm interested in any information about this radio, theoretical as well as experiential (Now that people are getting FreeRunners). I've got some grand plans in the works, which may or may not ever come to fruition, but some of the design considerations hinge on what kind of bandwidth the GPRS radio provides.
Also, and I know this has been talked about before, but is the final word that the GPRS can or cannot be active at the same time as the GSM (Class B or whatever it's called)? An ongoing GPRS connection would be really nice but if it can suspend/resume decently (Something like v.92 on modems if anyone remembers those). -KW _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
